One of the North West’s nicest producers, responsible for that hit “Take It Off”.

Big Squeeze

Big Squeeze aka Aaron Gordon has always been involved with the art of music. In junior high, he was known as DJ Squeeze and performed at various house parties. In high school, he hooked up with his 1st group, C.C.P. (Cruel Connection Posse). C.C.P. became known throughout the school district and performed at many different school assemblies.

After highschool, C.C.P. broke up into several individual acts and Squeeze began producing for Azarel the Hebrew, L-Dog, and his second group, 717. In ‘94, Squeeze was able to once again lockdown all the highschools with his new group. The group began doing shows all over Tacoma and brought Squeeze an assortment of new clients, including Mr. D.O.G.

By ‘97, this Texas native and now Tacoma resident, was producing for most of the groups making albums in Tacoma. By 2000, Squeeze’s mob style tracks had appeared on both Mr. D.O.G.’s albums (WET & Ghetto Politics), Drekno’s Marks on my Soul, Azarel’s self titled album, PR Record’s Seattle:the Darkside 2, Brave New World’s soundtrack All or Nothing, BWR2000’s NW Ridin, his debut compilation entitled Volume 1, which was released through Do-Lo Ent., and over 10 other albums from within his region.

After signing to Bow Wow Records in the fall of 2000, he began receiving major attention from artists throughout the NW. He then produced the dynamic track, “It Aint Sweet” which featured Portland’s prolific rap figure, Cool Nutz and Mr. D.O.G. from the soundtrack to the movie, All or Nothing. This is said to be the best track on the album.

All the hype surrounding his sound lead to an interview in StageCoach Magazine. As well as doing production for artist in Oregon, Alaska, and now California.
Since then, he has been working on his second project, the Senator. This project will definitely show that he is a force to be reckoned with. Appearing on it will be Mr. D.O.G., Cool Nutz, Kenny Mack, Mac Money, Ballin’ Ass Dame, Azarel, Bullet & Shaolin, and plenty of NW Icons.

His sound has been compared to BattleCat, and the old Zapp sound. This is largely due to his heavy listening to Parliament, Zapp, and many other old school funkadelic bands. Definitely
